I came across the trend analysis part of IceRocket today when I was looking around trying to find some ideas for how I might do a project I’m working on. It’s actually pretty clever and gives you a sense of the “buzz” associated with a certain topic from people’s blogs. For example, if you might want to compare the amount of buzz generated, between The OC with Desperate Housewives. It turns out that The OC seems to generate much more buzz than Desperate Housewives, I guess maybe it has a younger more blog-aware audience. Or maybe it’s just because it has Rachel Bilson in it.
